Protecting Our Kids Online: Bringing Digital Safety Education to Indiana
About this Event
Have you heard the terms grooming, exploitation, or sextortion?
If not, now is the time because...
The internet has changed childhood forever.
Our kids/grandkids/students/neighbors (choose any noun or relationship you wish) are growing up in a digital world that changes almost daily. While technology opens doors to incredible opportunities, it has also created new ways for predators to reach today's youth through social media, gaming platforms, messaging apps, and AI. These risks are real, they're increasing, and they don't discriminate, even right here in Central Indiana.
The good news is that education and awareness can make a powerful difference. The more we understand today's online threats, the better equipped we are to protect our kids.
Please join us for an imperative conversation about Influenced, an evidence-based online safety education program developed by , a project of The Exodus Road.
Anna Pavey, Vice President of Development for Influenced, will be visiting Indiana to share the vision for bringing this life-changing program to our community and beyond.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:
- The realities children face online today
- Why digital safety education must begin before a crisis occurs
- How Influenced equips both youth and trusted adults with practical tools to recognize and respond to online exploitation
- The vision for launching Influenced throughout Indiana beginning in 2027
- Ways individuals, businesses, and organizations can help make this initiative possible
THE GOAL:
This meeting is about education, collaboration, and building a statewide movement to better protect our children. Simply put, we need locals to come together and start spreading the word and spearheading the initiative so our kids aren't targeted any longer.
